fixed some more warnings
added alignment macros to some classes
btPersistentManifold from 128 to 16 bytes aligned
prepare command to select collision filter mode (SIM_PARAM_UPDATE_COLLISION_FILTER_MODE)
add inverse_kinematics.py and hello_pybullet.py pybullet examples
add m_worldLinkFramePosition/Orientation fields to b3LinkState, and in pybullet.getLinkState (URDF link frame in Cartesian/world coordinates)
simultaneous connections. At the moment, MAX_SHARED_MEMORY_BLOCKS = 2
Note that the amount of shared memory is limited on many systems,
32MB, while one block is already over 1MB at the moment...
You can connect to SHARED_MEMORY using the current key,
and key+1. There are a few commands that cannot currently be
executed in parallel among multiple connections,
since the implementation of the server
caches some data: rendering image (getCameraData),
getting contact point data and getting debug lines.
Windows shared memory: allow to use custom key.
Improve GUI performance on Windows, submit letters in text as a batch (fewer draw-calls)
quadruped.py: first try to connect to SHARED_MEMORY, if it fails (<0) use GUI
increase Chrome about://tracing json export capacity (press 'p' in Example Browser)
UDP physics server: add --port and --sharedMemoryKey command-line arguments
PhysicsServerExample: add --sharedMemoryKey command-line option (for VR example too)
ExampleBrowser: sleep a few milliseconds if rendering is too fast, use --minUpdateTimeMicroSecs=0 to disable
vrevent.py: add a Tiltbrush-style drawing example using pybullet
Expose getVREvents to pybullet / shared memory API, access to any VR controller state & state changes.
Improve performance of user debug lines (pybullet/shared memory API) by batching lines with same color/width
expose rayTest to pybullet/shared memory API (single ray for now)
add pybullet getMatrixFromQuaterion
Make btQuickprof thread safe
Add option in btQuickprof to override custom timing profile (btSetCustomEnterProfileZoneFunc, btSetCustomLeaveProfileZoneFunc)
remove b3Printf in a user/physics thread (those added added, while drawing the GUI running in the main thread)
(for example solverInfo().m_leastSquaresResidualThreshold = 1e-7 and use large m_numSolverIterations
disable sphere-sphere contact cache, it is buggy (some contact point stay in the cache, when sphere penetrates more than total margins)
tweak some gpu demo settings
allow 'useMaximalCoordinates' and 'useFixedBase' in pybullet.loadURDF.
enable split impulse for btRigidBody, even in btMultiBodyDynamicsWorld.
allow initialization of velocity and apply force for btRigidBody in pybullet/shared memory API.
process contact parameters in URDF also for btRigidBody (friction, restitution etc)
add pybullet.setPhysicsEngineParameter with numSolverIterations, useSplitImpulse etc.
